I am way past the 11 months and have been calling every week for the last three weeks now yet the answer has always been the same.....My file is complete and is with the final authority for approval so anytime, anytime even today tomorrow or next week I might get PP request. I tried calling yesterday Monday but their phones were all busy the whole day......looks like cic is kind of overwhelmed coz even work, study and visitors extensions are taking longer than normal to process......People are worried. The first time I called it seems the agent wasn't even aware that the time period has reduced to 11 months. I had to inform him only then did he confirm that its now 11 months....But every time I call the excuse has always been the same 11 months that's the average time hence it can be + or -......But I was assured my file is now complete and is with the final authority for approval....may be somebody can also try calling ....I will trying today again today!

Guys, it is true that the CIC representatives don't have any idea as to what is happening. I had been calling them since the day the processing times were updated to 11 months. I am currently at 13 months. During one of my many calls to them, I was lucky to have a more knowledgeable representative and she actually sent an email to CIC on my behalf (on previous occasions other representatives never acknowledged that they could send an email to VO). They were basically sitting on my decision made status for last 4 months. A week after that call, I got PPR and I would like to believe that it was due to that email. My point being that yes, calling them again n again, once you are over processing times might be helpful. (But you have to make sure you don't annoy them, LOL). I hope all of us get the well deserved updates soon.

It seems our applications will continue to be sitting until we draw CIC attention to them. CIC might be busy with other work.

I can't agree with you more. I think we have to draw their attention.. This is not "Procedurally Fair" because other FSW2014 applicants' timelines are not this bad!

 

[harrysaini]

Did anyone call CIC today..what's their stupid excuse for so much delay in processing for FSW 2014

i did, but couldnt get anything from them because of the months excuse.. i think we need to come together and voice out our concern.

They cannot just abandon a section of the program in favour of a new set!!!
That, to me calls to question the integrity of the program as well as how they enforce their procedural fairness.
